Person
Warren Faidley is an extreme weather photographer, adventurer, and natural disaster survival expert. He is the first person to pursue storms and natural disasters as a full-time occupation. Over the last 30 years, his hands-on experiences of outwitting dangerous situations has made him one of the world¿s most sought-after experts on storm-and-disaster survival. His work has appeared on television shows and in hundreds of newspapers, advertisements, and magazines, including National Geographic, CNN, Fox News, The Weather Channel, and the Discovery Channel. His image of a tornado near Pampa, Texas, was used as promotional cover art for the motion picture Twister. Warren¿s interest in violent weather began at age 12, when he nearly lost his life after being carried away by a flash flood. In 1988, he photographed a lightning bolt hitting a light pole less than 400 feet from him. Life Magazine published the image, and his career was launched. Warren is based in Tucson, Arizona.
